Definitions
- the present invention relates to a novel gene coding a protease, more specifically, a novel cDNA sequence of a thrombin-like serine protease originated from the venom gland of a Korean viper, Salmosa( Agkistrodon halys brevicaudus ) and an amino acid sequence translated therefrom.
- thrombosis and hemostasis has been a principal subject in the medical field for long time.
- studies on the thrombolytic agents such as urokinase, streptokinase and tissue-type plasminogen activator, have been actively carried out, and their use as therapeutic agents for thrombosis has been also practiced( see : Lijnen, H.R. et al., Thromb. Haemost., 66:88(1991)).
- snake venoms which are known to influence the hemostatic system in human, has been also investigated, and a number of materials that have an effect on the hemostatic system have been isolated from the venom and clinically tested.
- these materials many of which have been practically introduced in basic research or in diagnosis and treatment, in particular, a variety of thrombin-like proteases isolated from snake venoms which cleave fibrinopeptide of fibrinogen to produce fibrin, i.e., thrombin-like protease, have been reported( see : Meier, J. et al., Toxicology, 21:171(1991)).
- 23 enzymes of this category have been identified and the amino acid sequences of four enzymes have been determined.
- batroxobin a thrombin-like protease isolated from the venom of "Lance head snake” ( Bothrops atrox moojeni ), was reported to cleave fibrinopeptide A of fibrinogen in a specific manner.
- a small amount of batroxobin is able to convert fibrinogen to fibrin I(Des-A fibrin) which is degraded by plasmin rapidly, thus resulting in a decrease of fibrinogen level in blood.
- it can induce the synthesis of plasminogen activator and accelerate degradation of thrombus, but rather causes blood clotting when a high level of batroxobin is applied.
- batroxobin has been developed both as a defibrinogenating drug (commercial name “Defibrase”) and as a hemostatic agent (commercial name “Reptilase”)( see : Meier, J. et al., Medical Use of Snake Venom proteins, CRC Press, 136(1990)).
- the inventors isolated a cDNA of thrombin-like protease(hereinafter referred to as "Halybin”) from the cDNA library of the venom of Salmosa, and determined an amino acid sequence translated from the cDNA.
- Halybin a cDNA of thrombin-like protease
- a primary object of the present invention is, therefore, to provide a novel cDNA sequence of thrombin-like protease originated from the venom gland of a Korean viper, Salmosa( Agkistrodon halys brevicaudus ).
- the other object of the invention is to provide an amino acid sequence of the thrombin-like protease translated from the cDNA sequence.
- a cDNA of 2.1 kb encoding a thrombin-like protease was cloned, by employing an oligonucleotide probe for the non-conserved amino acids in the PCR products prepared with oligonucleotide primers for the amino acid sequences well conserved in the serine proteases isolated from the snake venom.
- cDNA thus cloned was determined to contain an open reading frame of 837 nucleotides encoding 279 amino acids, where the deduced amino acid sequence was composed of a mature serine protease of 234 amino acids and a signal peptide of 45 amino acids.
- Halybin was determined to have a molecular weight of 25.7 kDa and the isoelectric point(pI) of 5.68, and was suggested as a glycoprotein of higher molecular weight in the venom, since it contains an N-glycosylation site.
- Halybin has 64-71 % homology in terms of amino acid sequence, in a relation to thrombin-like proteases known in the art; and, the amino acid sequences of the active site, e.g., His, Asp, and Ser and in the vicinity of the active site as well as in the N-terminal sequence, are well conserved, which is common phenomena in the serine proteases originated from the snake venom.
- the protease of the present invention retains 12 cysteines, which are also well conserved throughout this category of enzymes, Halybin was suggested to have a thrombin-like protease activity similar to known proteases.
- cDNA sequence of the Halybin originated from the venom of a Korean viper, Salmosa( Agkistrodon halys brevicaudus ), can be expressed in proper expression systems established in recombinant E. coli , yeast, baculovirus/insect cells and other animal cells.
- the recombinant Halybin thus expressed can be applied as an active ingredient of thrombolytic and hemostatic agents.
- Example 1 Construction of cDNA library from the venom gland of Salmosa
- Venom gland was obtained from a Korean viper, Salmosa( Agkistrodon halys brevicaudus ). As the venom gland is a pea-like tiny tissue, at least five glands were used to obtain a sufficient amount of RNA. To isolate total cellular RNA, guanidine isothiocyanate was treated, and an ultracentrifugation with CsCl cushion was followed. Poly(A)+RNA was separated from the total cellular RNA, by applying on an oligo(dT)-cellulose column twice. Then, first and second strands of cDNA were synthesized by employing reverse transcriptase, RNase H, and E. coli DNA polymerase I( see : Sambrook, J.
- cDNA library thus constructed was determined to contain 106 of independent plaques.
- the construction process of the cDNA library from the venom gland of Salmosa was schematically depicted in Fig. 1.
- oligonucleotide primers for the well conserved amino acids in serine proteases from the snake venom were first selected as follows: Based on the amino acid sequence common to the N-terminal region of serine proteases from the snake venom, i.e., VIGGDEC, a degenerated oligonucleotide containing the following sequence was employed as 5' primer: 5' GTIATIGGIGGNGA(T/C)GA(A/G)TG 3'(SEQ ID NO:13).
- a degenerated oligonucleotide containing the following sequence was employed as 3' primer: 5' TGIGCIGCIGTNA(A/G)NCCCA 3'(SEQ ID NO:14) wherein, I represents inosine; and, N represents one of four nucleotides, i.e., A, G, C or T.
- PCR polymerase chain reaction
- the amino acid sequence derived from the DNA sequence (“PCR120") displayed 65-72 % homology with known serine proteases such as BATROXOBIN isolated from Bothrops atrox moojeni and FLAVOXOBIN isolated from Trimeresurus flavoviridis ( see : Fig. 2B).
- the underlined and the boxed represent DNA sequence derived from the PCR primers and DNA sequence employed in the screening of cDNA library, and amino acid sequences translated therefrom, respectively; and, (*), ($) and (#) represent conserved amino acids, an amino acid residue constituting the active site among the conserved sequence and conserved cysteine residues, respectively.
- the DNA sequence corresponding to the mid-domain of the PCR product of 120 bp i.e., 5'-CGTTCCCTTGTT- GTCTTGTTTAACTCCAGCG-3 ⁇ (SEQ ID NO:15), was employed as a probe for the screening of cDNA library described below.
- cDNA library prepared in Example 1 was plated on E. coli XL-1 Blue to obtain plaques of 1.2 X 105. After transferring the plaques into a nitrocellulose membrane twice, the membrane was treated with a degenerating solution(0.5 N NaOH, 1.5 M NaCl) for 2 minutes, with a neutralizing solution(0.5 M Tris HCl(pH 7.4) containing 1.5 M NaCl) for 5 minutes, and washed in 2 X SSC for 30 seconds.
- prehybridization was carried out at 68 °C for 3 hours, in a solution containing 5 X SSC, 20 mM sodium phosphate(pH 6.5), 3 % SDS and 100 ⁇ g/ml of salmon sperm DNA.
- the probe selected in Example 2 was end-labelled with [ ⁇ -32P]ATP, added in a concentration of 1 X 106 cpm/ml to the prehybridization solution, and left to hybridize at 53 °C for 16 hours.
- the membrane was washed with a solution containing 3 X SSC, 3 % SDS and 10 mM sodium phosphate(pH 6.5) at 53 °C for 1 hr.
- the membrane was exposed to an X-ray film(Agfa curix, Germany) under an intensifying screen at -70 °C for 24 hours.
- 11 positive clones whose spots were formed at the same position, were detected on the duplicate of the X-ray film.
- Hybridization of phage plaques transferred from a plate to two separate sheets of nitrocellulose membrane and exposure on the X-ray film, reveals a positive result that spots are found at the same position on each membrane.
- each clone was cloned in a pBluescript vector(Stratagene, USA) and treated with a restriction enzyme, and it was elucidated that the size of the insert ranged from 0.5 kb to 2.1 kb.
- the sequence analysis of each clone proved that 11 clones share common sequence of a gene, and among them the full sequence of the longest clone of 2.1 kb was determined.
- DNA sequence of 2.1 kb clone was determined by the dideoxy termination method( see : Sambrook, J. et al., Molecular Cloning, 2nd Ed., 1989) employing Sequenase(USB, USA). Careful determination of the sequence was carried out over a region of the total 2.1 kb of insert containing the total open reading frame. As a result, 1003 bp of DNA sequence was analyzed, which contains 5'-untranslated region of 49 bp, ORF(open reading frame) of 837 bp and 3'-untranslated region of 114 bp( see : Fig. 3A).
- the cDNA contains an open reading frame of 837 nucleotides encoding 279 amino acids. 279 amino acids were also determined to contain a signal peptide of 45 amino acids and a mature enzyme of 234 amino acids( see : Fig. 3B). Presumed from the amino acid sequence and composition, the mature enzyme was determined to be a protein of molecular weight of 25.7 kDa with the isoelectric point(pI) of 5.68, and was suggested to be a glycoprotein of higher molecular weight in the venom, since it contains an N-glycosylation site.
- Halybin displays 64-71 % homology in terms of amino acid sequence, in a relation to prior art thrombinlike proteases of snake venom( see : Fig. 5). Moreover, it was determined that Halybin contains amino acid sequences constituting the active site of common serine proteases, i.e., His, Asp, and Ser and the vicinity of the active site as well as the N-terminal sequence, which are well conserved in prior art serine proteases, e.g., FLAVOXOBIN( see : Shieh, T.-C. et al., J.
- the present invention provides a cDNA sequence of a thrombin-like protease ("Halybin”) originated from the venom gland of a Korean viper, Salmosa ( Agkistrodon halys brevicaudus ), and an amino acid sequence translated therefrom.
- the cDNA sequence of Halybin can be expressed in proper expression systems established in recombinant E. coli , yeast, baculovirus/insect cells and other animal cells, and Halybin thus produced can be applied as an active ingredient of thrombolytic and hemostatic agents.
